New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>:

This impacts higher-level APIs such as Queue.get() with a positive timeout.
I'm not sure whether it's easily possible to fix this. A Google search seems to 
suggest that the pipe could be opened with "SYNCHRONIZE" access rights (?) and 
then WaitForSingleObject() be used on the handle.
